STORM GODS

dividerr

Atop Olympus' summit
The Gods of Earth met
In stormy debate
Over the future of the planet.

Zeus gathered clouds and lightning;
Jupiter brought rain.
Thor DEMANDED THUNDER!
Indra and Pulugu and Adad-Ramman
Stormed "Tempest!"
"Yes!" boomed Tlaloc,
Agreement from Kilima, Asiak.
"More!" cried Raka, Gash and Huraken.

Then Jehovah, once
Bringer of Deluge and Flood, rose.
"Amendment!"

"Send a Rainbow!"
